What to do with Leftover Brisket

Brisket is a classic main dish for holidays, elegant dinners, and family get-togethers. It typically leaves a ton of leftovers and we are here to show you just how to use up those leftovers so none of that tasty food goes to waste, because if there is one thing we really don’t like, it’s food waste!

Our Mission: Help give new life to your holiday leftovers!

Our mission is to stop food waste at home, especially during the holidays, when families gather for that big massive feast! We have tons of ideas for turkey and mashed potatoes, but what about all of the leftover brisket?

Give New Life to Holiday Leftovers

Repurposing holiday leftovers is kind of our favorite thing. It’s a time when a lot of food gets wasted, thrown away, or is left to go bad sitting at the back of your fridge. Brisket is one main component of a holiday meal that is incredibly easy to repurpose. This is how we combat food waste, by creating completely new and fun dishes bringing your leftovers back to life!

 

Leftover Brisket Ideas

#1: Make a Quick Bolognese with Leftover Brisket

One of the best things about Bolognese is that you can use any leftover veggies, fresh or canned tomatoes, and any protein to make a really hearty and delicious Bolognese. Cook your Bolognese per the recipe, but wait to put your chopped up brisket in until the very end. Once you add your brisket, let it warm through and serve over your favorite pasta! Check out some of our favorite Bolognese recipes below:

#2: Make Nachos with Leftover Brisket

Do you want to know what is truly the perfect leftover meal? Nachos! Start with your favorite tortilla chips or make your own. Go wild with the toppings! Do you have any leftover veggies and a half of a can of beans hanging out in the fridge? Sauté them up with some spices and lime juice and add those too.

Skip the part where it tells you how to cook your meat and go right to topping your tortilla chips. Nachos are the perfect way to use up any leftover protein, but brisket makes it extra special! Top it with your favorite cheese, avocado, and fresh cilantro to really bring those leftovers to life! Don’t have tortilla chips, but have tortillas? Make a taco! Add leftover brisket to any of your favorite taco recipes! Check out some nacho & taco recipes below:

#3: Make Egg Rolls with Leftover Brisket

Pretty much anything can be a delicious egg roll filling. Finely chop your leftover brisket with other leftover minced or shredded vegetables you need to use up. Cabbage, spinach, and sweet potatoes are some of our favorite vegetable fillings and things we always have hanging out in our kitchen.

Kick it up with fresh grated ginger and garlic, soy sauce, and rice wine vinegar. Spring roll wrappers are widely available at most grocery stores and at all Asian markets. You can replace and protein in an egg roll recipe with you finely chopped brisket. Fry them up on your stove or in an air fryer! Check out some of our favorite egg roll recipes below:

You can also use leftover brisket in place of the protein in any of these Steamy Kitchen recipes;  Buddha Bowl with Sweet Pomegranate Sauce, Chinese Spring Rolls, or add it to this Japchae
